Question 1

During the technical interview they've asked me general questions related to my field of expertise in a very broad manner for approximately 45 min. Then they've shown me snippets of patent claims and technical drawings from earlier patent applications and made me identify novel parts and explain everything to them. They basically wanted to check my understadning of patent claims and the invention.
